This is my new XM, bought from messersmitt owner last weekend. Citroen owned car for the first few years then bought by a guy who used it for regular long jaunts up north before laying it up for 5 years in a garage. Finally bought by messersmitt owner middle of last year.
My brother had an away match down Tavistock today so I took the opportunity to borrow my sister's DSLR and take the XM for a spin up on to the moors for some photos. The journey down was easy, with all that torque you'd never know we had four people and a good stash of stuff in the boot     This post has been edited by red_dwarfers on April 10, 2011 03:33 pm -------------------- '97 XM 2.1 TurboD VSX Manual Green

It is indeed Peter almost your ideal car were it not for the missing extra sticky out bit at the back. Add on another to the Southwest 2.1 Manual owners list!
I'm heading over to see Toby_HDI (FCF) this week to see what all the fuss is about this Zig Zag hill so look out your window and you might see me This post has been edited by red_dwarfers on April 10, 2011 06:44 pm -------------------- '97 XM 2.1 TurboD VSX Manual Green

Very good pictures Kev. I was doubting whether you would actually buy an Xm but here you are!
 It looks very tidy, and an excellent engine and box choice too. Ill no doubt see you in it at some CCC events throughout the year. Edit: I cant quite get my head around what is going on, I seem to have stumbled across the old Xm forum which is now being used again ... my sig was ancient!

I see, well this one is looking much better now. Though its going to get confusing having two Xm forums running

Well the trouble is that XMs are like potential girlfriends, they turn up when you least expect them  I wasn't actually looking to buy one, its a pipe dream gone wrong.Thanks all This post has been edited by red_dwarfers on April 10, 2011 10:21 pm -------------------- '97 XM 2.1 TurboD VSX Manual Green
